Thank you for being a friend......to the State of Pop Culture!!
"The Golden Girls" remains one of the most iconic sitcoms to ever grace the small screen, and yours truly is here to give you our personal favorite moments from the shows 7 season run!
Whether it be a sarcastic zinger from Dorothy, some sexual innuendo from Blanche, a Siciliy story from Sophia or.....something.....kinda dumb from Rose.....
There's plenty of moments to talk about!
So let's count down my PERSONAL faves!
10. Dorothy's Paper Bird
Bea Arthur and Estelle Getty deserved every single damn award for this entire sequence which had yours truly howling. And kudos to Betty White for every Rose facial reaction.
Just watch.
9. Lebanese?
When confronted with her friend Jeans sexuality, Dorothy has some explaining to do to Blanche.
8. There's a Storm A'Comin'
I can't tell you why this scene makes me laugh so hard, it just.....hits hard. Bea's delivery here puts me on the floor every time.
7. Blanche Needs to Sleep
I would have thrown every single damn award at Rue McClanahan for this scene. The sheer genius with the portrayal of the sleep deprivation, and don't even get me started on the delivery of "I have too many earrings".
6. The Slut is Dead
Chalk this one up to one of Dorothy's greatest zingers!!!
5. Slut and a Moron
At this point, I don't think anyone's shocked to find out that I absolutely love the way Bea Arthur could deliver a line. But what drives this one in particular home?
The expressions on Blanche and Rose's faces!
4. Lesbians Lovers of Miami
You know you're going to strike gold when all 4 ladies are present for the scene, and this one is definitely one of my favorites! Rose's expressions off camera, paired with the begrudgedness from Dorothy and Blanche only to top it off with Sophia's delivery?
Perfect.
3. I Wanna Be Loved By You
Rue McClanahan's knack for physical comedy reached a peak with this moment. Just a tour de force moment for her in the series' run.
2. Blanche & Rose Shame Dorothy
What else is there to really say about this, other than what the title is?
The back and forth, Dorothy's exasperation, and finally her blowing up at the end. The chemistry these 3 ladies had was undeniable and made for one hell of a TV moment.
1. Dr. Jonathan Newman
I really don't know what else to say about this scene. Everything works. My all timer moment from one of my all time favorite shows.
And make sure to tell me some of YOUR favorite moments!!!
